Re: Shock suggestions for 85 C20
I've run Monroe Sensatrac's in the past. They are a good stock replacment. No better or worse imo. Ranchos seem a bit rough (had them on my 83), but it could have been due to my lift.
When I replace the shocks in my 2012, I'm going to save up for Bilsteins. A lot of positive comments on them, especially on the newer trucks.

Re: Shock suggestions for 85 C20
Just installed a set of KYB, man this truck drives way better. Such an improvement. But i guess anything is better then OEM from 85'.

Re: Shock suggestions for 85 C20
KYB Monomax, you can get them all over the place. Several retail shops have them, even Less Schwab can, but you will get shocked.... No pun intended on the price from them.
